Aboard ship, Lord Dilling and Lord Felton meet beautiful and charming Mrs. Cheyney and both fall for her. She is invited into their home and admired by all, especially the Duchess. But are she and her faithful butler, Charles, something more than meets the eye? Well-played and quite funny, with William Powell throwing an interesting twist into the situation. Montgomery and Crawford both do well and all members of the supporting cast are excellent.
